Does Your Engine Die at Idle? This May Be Your Fix. Save$$$

In this video I share my experience as to what the most common cause and repair is for a vehicle shutting off at idle. I explain that it, in my experience, is usually caused by a dirty IAC motor, aka IAC valve, and the fix is usually just to clean it. I even demonstrate how the IAC valve can be cleaned. I also explain what the IAC valve's purpose is and how it works.

As mentioned in this video, the information in the video will not be applicable to all vehicles out there. Not every vehicle is equipped with an IAC valve similar to the one shown in the video. In those cases this video will not be of much help. However, IAC valves, similar to the one shown in the video, have been used for years an many different makes and models and the information will be applicable to many viewers.

!!Note!! Some vehicle equipped similarly to the one shown in the video can sustain damage by performing some or all of the services discussed and shown in this video. These vehicles are few but they do exist. Please verify that performing the services in this video will not damage your vehicle before you attempt it. Read, read read. Research research research. If you do not have a repair manual specifically for your vehicle then you need to get one. Read your owners manual. Read forums specific to your vehicle. Do your own research. There is no way I can compile a complete list of vehicles that this service should not be performed on. I do know, however, that it has been very rare, for me, to find a vehicle that this could not be done on.
